FOOD & DR INK
A MONTHLY ROUND-UP OF GASTRO GOINGS-ON AROUND CAMBRIDGESHIRE
January might be the most cash-strapped month of the year, but there’s deals aplenty at the city’s eateries if you fancy a meal out. Loch Fyne on Trumpington Street is offering 50% off main courses throughout January, so you can sample its menu of seafood delicacies at a bargain price, or for tasty Thai food, make a beeline to Quayside restaurant, Thaikhun, which is offering 40% off its menu of dishes inspired by Bangkok street food, plus pinto, salads, soups and cocktails. The offer is valid Sundays to Thursdays, from 5 to 30 January and for a maximum of six people. Also offering discounted deliciousness is Carluccio’s: if you buy one full-price main, you can get the second for just £1 between 2 January and 11 February. JANUARY DINING OUT DEALS
BURNS NIGHT FUN
Burns Night, the celebration of Scotland’s great poet Robert Burns, takes place on 25 January. We might be more Fenland than Highland in Cambridge, but there are a few options for enjoying the fun and feasting. Have a wee dram at Cambridge Wine Merchants, which is hosting a Scottish whisky tasting with on-theme nibbles on the 25th at its Cherry Hinton Road branch, or head to The Mitre for a slap-up Scottish feast of haggis, neeps and tatties and traditional dessert cranachan. It’s available from 21 to 26 January. Loch Fyne is also getting in on the fun with a feast that includes cullen skink (smoked haddock, potatoes and rye sourdough), queen scallops and smoked salmon.
